Morocco offers many unique cultural experiences and attractions, including many you might be aware of, but with their own distinct Moroccan twist. This podcast episode explains particular Moroccan cultural activities, to help you understand what they are, how they work, where you can find them and how you can participate yourself. Azdean is joined by podcast producer Ted to chat about: - the Moroccan spa and hammam experience, - the hammam sand bath, - what's involved with visiting the desert (whether on a day trip or overnight), - camel riding in Morocco, - where to find Berber (Amazigh) cultural experiences, - how to visit mosques and other Islamic sites, and - where to find Morocco's rich Jewish heritage. Our goal is to clarify those lingering mysteries and ambiguities, and to identify what makes these wonderful activities and experiences unique to Morocco, in their own way. You'll come away knowing what to look for, what questions to ask, and most of all, if it's somethi…

Morocco; A land of ancient traditions, vibrant colors, and captivating rhythms. Born in the heart of the Atlas Mountains, Ahwach is more than just a dance. It's a storytelling ritual, passed down through generations.

In today's episode of Destination Morocco podcast, Azdean and Sam respond to a common question they receive: Just how easy is it to travel to Morocco? This is then a starting point for a detailed discussion on some useful, practical logistics when it comes to travel to, and around, their beautiful country. Starting with visa requirements, particularly for U.S. and Canadian travelers, they then talk about passport validity and various direct flight options, more of which are starting all the time.

Our good friend Siham returns to continue the discussion with Azdean and Sam from Ep. 62 (May 15, 2024, https://youtu.be/ArHaowCqy44) about dangerous scams and unseemly tourism practices in Morocco. This time, the topic is discount "tour operators," the type you see in the Jemma el-Fnaa square in Marrakech (or seemingly on every street corner and cubbyhole), offering "$80 tours to Merzouga Desert" or "$20 to visit Aït Benhaddou." Impossibly cheap prices, yet tantalizing as a result. As has been said, "We hear a story too go to be true - it ain't." You might be wondering therefore what exactly comes with one of these tours, do they even go to the destination at all? How could they possibly advertise transport, breakfast and accommodation for that price? What actually happens when you sign up? Well, Siham did us a solid and went on one of these tours to Merzouga, posing as a regular "tourist," to find out. She tells us about: - Having to pay extra for AC in a hot van, - Being pres…
